Interoperable Data Management Using Personal and Infrastructure Clouds

摘要

Cloud computing has reached a level of maturity and high level of popularity such that various cloud services have become a part of our lives. Mobile devices also benefit from cloud services. The huge amount of data that users produce with these devices is continuously posted to online services, which require the use of several cloud providers at the same time to efficiently store these data. The Internet of Things (IoT) provides a way to improve social networking by interdisciplinary efforts that can be effectively supported by cloud computing solutions. This article proposes an approach for composing and interoperating cloud solutions to support IoT functionality. The author unites separate personal clouds in an autonomous way to cope with the enormous amount of data users produce and share in social networks. He also demonstrates how to manage, share, and process user data produced by mobile devices in different infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) clouds.
